I have to make an oil rig model with the size of 60x50x50cm by using recycled materials and weight will be added from 1 kg to 10 kg depends on its stability. How can I make this model float? thank you

Hello Amira, :welcome:

Use a few PET bottles...
 
I think it's easist first to watch a short vidio clip I find these videos very relaxing to watch .. I got to thinking is this being done in the most efficient way? The sand has to be suspended in the water to move it to the outlet ... The faster the water , the more turbulance and the sand stays suspended, so it seems to me the rule of thumb is the hose be aimed towards the outlet at all times .. Many times the workers hit the sand directly which will greatly reduce the water...
